workflow

A Ruby state machine library, like assm / acts_as_state_machine, but with a nicer, more sensible API (in my opinion).

lispy

Code-as-data in Ruby, without the metaprogramming madness.

w1000-super-total-mega-shark-cache-on-a-boat-on-a-plane

Fork of wp-cache plugin that uses uri based filepaths (like wp-super-cache) but with query strings and without wp-super cache's codebase and behaviour. Aim is to be the absolute fastest and simplest wp cache plugin coz each of them have their warts in their own ways.

sir-sync-a-lot

Baby got backups! (a fast S3 backup tool).

lumberjack

Lumberjacks cut down trees. This lumberjack builds them (it's a generic DSL for constructing object trees).

hack

The tiniest web-framework, ever.

dns

Migrating a lot of DNS? Yeah, well this should help a bit.

aspect

A kind of sort of AOP-ish library thingy that I did, everyone else is mad, I swear.

modelling

Wraps some common-ish plain-ruby object modelling junk.

not

Inverts booleans. I'm not sure if this was not or not done before, but it's not done now!

offload

A background job library that doesn't exist (really).

dashboard

Set this as your homepage and put things on it that you need in front of your face often (coz you always forget).

superheroes

Tease apart the semantics of what things are versus what they can do.

hijack

Another AOP-like (hijacking) library, when I forgot that I had already written one (aspect), and I still swear everyone else is mad.

best3

The best Ruby Amazon S3 library in existence (well, not yet).

lost-socks

Lost Socks is a Ruby DSL (lol) for specifying DNS records, and verifying these records against name servers. Handy for large DNS migrations, where a record here or there are inevitably left behind, misspelled or entered incorrectly.

lest

A minimal Lua testing framework, just for kicks.

tdsa

TDSA = Test Driven System Administration. Well, this only plays with web servers. But anyway.

hiccup

The same thing, over and over again, until it's not.

rock_view

A deprecated view library, ERB on steroids. We replaced it with about 10 lines of helper methods.

tilde-slash

Junk that lives in my home directory, .gvimrc, .profile, .gitconfig, etc :)

turns.js

Single-player option-based story engine thing.

jdigits

Key combinations in JavaScript because, like, it's never been done before. LOL.

yeahnah.org

My frig website.

stumpy

douche

WHAT IF I DIDN'T WANT TO BUY THE POTION? WHAT APOUT QUESTS?

interceptor

Mad Max had one, and he was freaking awesome.

comb

A simple assembler for client-side modularity in JavaScript applications.

tree-face

Tree Face is the successor to Lumberjack. It's a big nasty tree with a big nasty face and it's out for revenge!

blaaag

the-railroad

Now when people ask "What are you working on?" I can say "I've been working on the-railroad". They ask "How long have you been working on that?" and my reply "All the live long day."
